EVENT
Preschool Summer Series: Saving Water
July 15, 2021
10:00 am–10:45 am
Join Waterworks Museum Staff live at the museum as we look at different ways to save water.
First, we will read “Why Should I Save Water?” Then, we will explore how much water is takes to create different foods we like and to do different household chores. Finally, we will decorate our own flower pots as a special place to dump out extra water while helping the earth. Recommended for ages 3-6.
Cost: $5 per participant. Participants may be accompanied by up to two adults at no additional charge. In accordance with the Governor’s latest mask advisory, face coverings for this event are only required for those over two years of age who have not yet been vaccinated.
To see more sessions in this series, check Thursdays at 10 am on our events calendar June through August.
Upcoming Events
Great Engines Hall
The centerpiece of the Waterworks Museum is its collection of steam engines. Three original coal-powered, steam-driven water pumps are preserved at the Museum and are monuments to 19th century technology and innovation. Leavitt, Worthington, and Allis stand in the Great Engines Hall and reach more than 3 stories tall. Walk around each and see the multitude of perfectly engineered parts that pumped million gallons of freshwater a day into the City of Boston.
